Balena etcher fails on verification

Hi, all. Im almost done with my 3.1 400 build. Im trying to write RatOS 2.1 on a memory card. Ive tried multiple cards and adapters. But the same error comes after verification: "Something went wrong. If it is a compressed image, please check that the archive is not corrupted. The writer process ended unexpectedly." No matter the size of the memory cards, i can see in disk management that Balena etcher makes one drive with 256mb, and one with 7.73gb. Any suggestions? This is quite frustrating since i cant proceed in installing the rest of the electronics before my Raspberry and Octopus are flashed

Haven't done this yet, but seems to be a common problem - take a look at this: https://discord.com/channels/582187371529764864/1262461781918482544/1262555313379217568 (basically use an older version of Balena, or can also try the Raspberry Pi imaging tool)

I had the same problem on three different Pcs , different cards and versions of Etcher. In the end I found Rufus worked perfectly the first time for me.

I tried Balena 1.18. Still error. @synapsis trying Rufus now Rufus worked like a charm. Thanks for the tip 🙂
